'Both trolls and sadists feel > sadistic glee at the distress of others. Sadists just want to have fun > ... and the Internet is their playground!'" I beg to differ. Not everyone who is by majority considered a troll necessarily enjoys to cause serious distress. A good troll can be quite entertaining and might manage to make people think, by adopting absurd positions and arguing in their favour or by exaggerating positions to show how ridiculous they are. One of my favourite trolls would be Shelleytherepublican. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.19 (GNU/Linux) iJwEAQECAAYFAlL79AUACgkQ4XLZ2XZQJ8A0UAQAl3JOhlQmSBjBseInfJjqWuNK Azs7+PpKZ2YAzeDc1Zg2oJMIZ2FIOVhbi9kxZj7QBeJSh7XVgzemHD7eFU2OOjiX NVQKe7AqDmAcwmytinZwKO0Sj1k4jq7oksHYN3ZIKjQXNeO9PpKPzBDAkiWrapWp lyqVGZb6HdzEDbSVTuk= =Kr9w -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- -- Trolling is a art!
